I sent an email to KSAT-12 about my disappointment in not airing the Bristol race and this is the response I got from David Cuccio-KSAT 12 Audience Relations:
Hi, thanks for writing and for watching KSAT-12. We've had a contract for the past several years to air the Texans pre-season football games in South Texas. This 1st game this year just happened to fall on the same night as the NASCAR race. As you can imagine the schedule is beyond our control and it just happened to fall on that night this year. We weren't happy about it either, but inevitably, whatever is in that time period will be pre-empted for the games, per our contract. We're sorry for the inconvenience! Thanks again for writing.

Penalties:
Michael Waltrip docked 100 points.
Buffy Waltrip docked 100 owner points.
VP of Competition Bobby Kennedy and Crew Chief David Hyder suspended indefinitely.
Hyder fined $100,000.
Michael Waltrip will attempt to make the Daytona 500 field in David Reutimann's back-up car in tomorrow's Gatorades.
NASCAR did not specify what substance was found in Waltrip's intake manifold, but did say the additive was also found in the fuel line. NASCAR's Robin Pemberton said he was fairly confident the substance did not originate in the intake manifold.
